Ketosis and Nutritional Cleansing: How a Cleanse Day Helps with Ketosis and Fat Burn

Did you know that Nutritional Cleansing can help put your body into ketosis or fat burning mode?

Its actually pretty fascinating to see what happens to body fat during a cleanse day.

So why does this occur and how can you use this to your advantage to release body fat and feel more energetic, fit and healthy?

First, lets dig a little deeper into Ketosis and Nutritional Cleansing...

So what is Ketosis? 


Ketosis is a normal metabolic process where the body burns stored fats as fuel when it does not have enough glucose for energy.  This will also result in a build up of acids, also known as ketones.

Some people will follow a strict ketogenic diet every day in order to put their bodies into this ketosis, or fat burning state, but many people have also realized that nutritional cleansing and intermittent fasting once or twice a week can more effectively create this state of ketosis and fat burn within their bodies.

How does Nutritional Cleansing create Ketosis in the Body?


During a Cleanse Day, the body burns our fat (ketosis)...it will literally use up fat as fuel which causes fat cells to shrink.  As fat cells get smaller, less and less are produced.  This helps our bodies immensely as the endocrine system returns to a more normal state and molecules that cause inflammation in the body are produced less and less.   (HUGE bonus as Inflammation is one of the number one causes of disease in the human body!)

The other important thing to note about Nutritional Cleansing vs a Ketogenic diet is that Nutritional Cleansing first addresses the root issue of toxicity in the body, while the ketogenic diet is more focused on low carbs and high fats in the macronutrient ratios for the day.  Read more about what Macronutrients are here.

So Think of Fat like a Sponge holding on to Toxins...during a cleanse, as our bodies get rid of toxins, the fat that was holding on to the toxins is allowed to be released properly as well!

Nutritional Cleansing, rebalances the body...it is NOT a traditional diet that focuses on simply restricting calories or carbs.  Nutritional Cleansing is focused on flooding the body with essential, healthy nutrients that the body craves, while removing unhealthy and unsafe toxins from the body.  

Nutritional Cellular cleansing removes toxins from the body, allowing the body to properly build lean muscle and melt away excess fat (ketosis) where the toxins had been stored (often for years!)


So how can you use Nutritional Cleansing to your advantage for Ketosis and to release toxins and unwanted fat?  

The most effective is when we do a 2 day deep cellular cleanse.

Watch here as my husband and I explain cleanse days and what happens to body fat during a nutritional cleanse as well as how to complete a proper one or 2 day deep cleanse.

Toxic Fat: How Toxins Make You Fat and What you can do about it!

Do Toxins actually make you fat?? What is the connection between toxins and fat and what can you do about it? According to Dr. Mark Hyman, "Scientists recently uncovered a surprising and disturbing fact: environmental toxins make you fat and cause diabetes. Inside the body, these chemicals monkey with our ability to balance blood sugar and metabolize cholesterol. Over time, the changes can lead to insulin resistance. This discovery should be headline news but no one is talking about it. Why? Because there are no drugs to treat it. In the quest to conquer the two biggest epidemics of our time—diabetes and obesity—we’ve got to turn our attention to the heavy burden environmental toxins put on our bodies." As a direct result of all the toxins around us, in the air we breathe and the food we eat, our bodies are filled with toxins and our bodies literally use fat as a way to  protect our vital organs from those toxins.

Do We Really Need Nutritional Supplements? Top 5 Reasons We Need to Supplement

Do I really need to supplement? Why is it so important, anyways? Well, in a perfect world, none of us would need to supplement because we'd be able to get all the nutrients we need to survive from the food we eat.  But due to the poor quality of our modern diet from chemicals, preservatives and toxins, daily stresses etc, few of us are able to get what we need even in the most strict of organic diets. According to Dr. Mark Hyman, "Most people don’t understand the role of vitamins and minerals in our bodies. I certainly didn’t when I finished medical training. I thought if we just had enough to prevent us from some horrible deficiency state like scurvy (vitamin C deficiency), then you didn’t have to worry about how much you were getting. I also thought that if you ate “enriched food” like white flour with a few vitamins added back in, or milk with vitamin D added in, additional vitamin supplementation was a waste." read his article here: ' Do you need n...
